Kansas Room Microfilm



Leavenworth Public Library Microfilm
This index is an exact copy of the one that is in the same folder as the map index on top of the map cabinet in the Kansas Room. It is a listing of materials that may be accessed at Leavenworth Public Library. This includes old city ordinances, magazines, and more. The library has also acquired genealogy films, which are described on this page:  Genealogy Microfilm
To view a roll of microfilm, ask for assistance at the Reference Desk or Circulation Desk.

Leavenworth Public Library microfilm is stored in the Circulation Department Office and in a locked cabinet in the Kansas Room.  All microfilm rolls are not numbered consecutively yet, nor have they been catalogued.  The items with call numbers are filmed copies of items that were in the Kansas Room but were deteriorated enough to preclude physical use.
